Grandfather, do you know me?
I am your blood.
The daughter of your son.
I come to ask you a question Grandfather.
Grandfather, don't you know me?
Can I stop being Indian now?
There are others that want to be Indian,
And if they can start from nothing,
I should be able to stop from something?
Grandfather, don't you know me?
Grandfather, I don't look like you.
I don't know what you know.
It would be easy for me to hide behind my paler skin.
No one would know the pain I feel,
Or see the tears I cry for your Great Grandchildren.
Grandfather, don't you know me?
Grandfather, look what I have done to our world.
Mother Earth is on her knees.
The Snake and Owl rule the day.
I don't understand the language you speak Grandfather.
Grandfather, don't you know me?
Grandfather, I want my Pepsi, Levi's and Porsche too.
I want to go where the others go,
And see the things they see too.
I don't have time to dance in the old way Grandfather.
Grandfather?
Grandfather, why are you crying?
Grandfather, why are you crying?
Grandfather, please stop crying.
Grandfather, don't you know me? | |

We found out today that my bloodhound Duke has cancer.
He is only Two and a half so we are going to let him have the surgery on Monday...
The tumors are behind his eyes so he may come out of it blind but that is OK we have a very big yard and lots of help to help him along... I am afraid.....I don't want to lose him...... | |

| Some of these have been past down from father to son for generations long before Columbus... | |
